Trying to fight the same good fight as you, sir :). I’m not as good with hardware or people, and I don’t have enough room at home to do what you do. I also have to admit that my household produces quite a bit of technical waste. But yes, Clippy just wants to help! People should have the right to repair and to keep these old IBM ThinkPads with their great keyboards running for another decade or so.

Hell yeah! I shouldn't have to worry about my laptop simply dying one day and not having the resources needed to repair it despite the capability and equipment to do so!
